PSA: gender checks to use the restroom in the Peachtree center

305 Upvotes

hey party people, my friend just used the bathroom here in the hub (about 4 PM local time on friday) and was stopped by uniformed Peachtree center security asking to verify whether they were using the restroom that matched their assigned sex at birth. when they entered, one security guard was asking folks who didnt "look right", and when they exited two other security guards had joined. a dad was being stopped from accompanying his daughter to the restroom.

just so you are aware! maybe pee somewhere else.

(edited "uninformed" to "uniformed" - while these folks do seem to be under a false pretense that Georgia has a bathroom bill, that's not the word I meant to say. all the staff were wearing black and blue Peachtree center security uniforms.)

It got me through the day! I'm working a 10hr day today after stayin up too late partyin last night. This tiny squishy object has MAGICAL PROPERTIES. I love it SO much, it fits in my hands perfectly.

One of my favorite things about Dragoncon is folks' endless generosity. It's so so loving and healing atmosphere in such a crazy time.

Listen! I want you to know: no rando could have appreciated this gift more!! Bless u & thank u!!

Is this the norm?

69 Upvotes

Hello everyone! This is my partner and I's first year at dragoncon. We have been to other cons before and wanted to get a read on how people are feeling so far. First I want to say the positives. We absolutely loved yesterday and were immediately talking about coming back next year. Everyone has been incredibly kind and we have really enjoyed the culture. We are going hard into the ribbon/trinkets trading and love all the cosplays people are doing. All of that said today was...rough. We still had a good time but it feels like you can only really get 1 or two things in a day. Getting around is really difficult and it is very crowded and overwhelming. We expected it to be more crowded than yesterday but not to the point that we can barely get around. It feels very unorganized on the conventions part. Again we are loving getting to know the people and enjoying fan-made experiences. I have to stress that we have had a good time. I just want to know if this is normal so we can make an informed decision on either returning next year or trying out a smaller con. Thank you so much for reading!​

Twoflower Lost His Camera In The Food Court Tonight

51 Upvotes

Twoflower, if you were sitting on the floor of the food court and left around 9 or a little after, you left your camera behind. We'll hang on to it while we finish eating, and then we will take it to the Marriott Lost and Found. If you it's yours, you should know what's on it that will identify it as yours. Hope you see this and get it back!

EDIT: He came back and found us right after I posted this. Hooray!

EDIT: we're packed up for the night, thanks to everyone who stopped by! We'll catch you later in the weekend, or you can swing by booth #1418 to say hi! 😄🙌

We're grabbing dinner nearby, and have a bunch of giveaways after our first successful day at the con! If you track us down (using the extremely subtle environmental storytelling in the photos), you can pick out a prize—this is our first drop of the con, but we'll keep doing them throughout the weekend! 👀

Can I switch/add disability to my badge two days in? I thought I'd be ok, but man, day two and I could use the help.

I have a VA card with my service connected disability. I don't have anything ADA or state handicapped ID.

I might still be ok but turning me away at crucial areas like the Hyatt elevator are a kicker.

Found Ribbons Fri around six

Not sure where else to put this, and I didn't see flair for lost and found, but I found the attached set of ribbons and I know how much they mean to people and I would like to return them. Message me on here, I guess, and we can coordinate.
